PVC fell out of use in the 2000s, most buildings use PEX now; but I don’t know how that compares.

Yep, even metal-canned sodas have a plastic liner on the inside of them.

I mean, what is “Aether” in a historical/classical context? Would that fit?

Edit: I guess not. Aether seems to be more like…‘dark matter’ or ‘gravity’ than electricity.

lol, You’re a special kind of butt-hurt aren’t you. Seeth.

Yeah, all of those sound perfect - should keep things nice and cheap and the machine will feel way snappier.

Honestly we’re reaching a point where 32gb of system RAM should be the default for most people. Especially for games.

You’re already probably not CPU-bottlenecked on the GPU - while you’re playing games, you should be sitting at 100% (or close) to GPU utilization.

If your GPU utilization never hits 100%; then you’re CPU bottlenecked.

Get a 1TB NVME Gen 4 drive, the speedup is insane. (If you have a slot for it on your motherboard; use this as your OS drive)

Get another 16gb of PC3200 DDR4 that’s as closely matched with your existing kit as possible.

and from there, only a GPU upgrade is needed to get you pretty close to the top. I still like the 3060 12gb; because I play games that require a lot of vram, but choice is yours here.

Yes, but federation controls that on a wider level by adjusting what you’re allowed to see and interact with. Therefore, someone above you gets to control that still. That’s the point I’m making.

If everything federated by default, and users could sign up for filter lists or something to make it easy - sure. But that’s not how it works.

Lemmy even did the same thing Reddit is doing now, where if you mentioned a certain topic they were banning people; but they walked it back. I believe it was even the same topic of Luigi and “advocating violence”.

Well there ya go. Turns out the fediverse isn’t about freedom from corporations - and it’s just about creating your own brand of filter bubble.

And just think, you guys were the ones who didn’t leave back when it was going down the shitter because you disagreed with the opinions of the people they were banning.

This isn’t even exactly a haven for wrongthink either. /r/fatpeoplehate couldn’t exist on Lemmy, so most people coming over aren’t even really concerned with political opinions being silenced, so much as they care about their particular political opinion being silenced.

Phone is on vibrate all the time. Signal only, but also have Pushbullet set up so I can send notifications when new movies/tv show episodes are downloaded and added to my Jellyfin.

Oh don’t worry - Lemmy will soon have people posting child porn, gore, or other things en-masse before reporting the site/domain. I’ve seen it on almost every Reddit alternative since Digg shut down.

They’ll run hit pieces against this place for being extremist, they’ll do all sorts of nasty shit.

So first they ignore you. Then they laugh at you. Then they fight you.

Pterodactyl

Pterodactyl is the most asinine shit to ever set up, ever.

Most users on Lemmy are Delusional. especially here in /c/Technology – turns out, this community isn’t for technology at all, but rather for bitching about silicon valley companies.

Can we get some actual tech related news please? This is just politics OF a tech company, not tech itself.

It’s gotten a lot better in the last year or so. There’s a whole new class of machines that solved those issues and aren’t nearly as difficult to operate.

Prior to a year ago, I’d say 3D printing was a hobby meant for someone who was into robotics, and programming, etc.

I run a repair shop, and now I see all sorts of children printing stuff, and it’s easier than it ever was.

Ouya really got burned on that one.

What if I told you NOBODY’s opinions of you meant shit?
